Some photos of the Mixed Messages opening reception at The Delaplaine in Frederick, MD this weekend. This gorgeous large former mill space with huge wood support posts and exposed brick really sets off the ten paintings in the exhibit. On exhibit through September 27.

Thanks to volunteers Joyce and Ashley and Delaplaine Exhibits Manager Diane Sibbison for their first-rate support.

Mixed Messages features figure paintings that hint at emotions which remain largely hidden in real life. The intent of this grouping of bold images of faces and heads is to draw the viewer in to examine feelings behind the facade.

Spent today putting hooks and wires on artwork for Mixed Messages. Wrapping paintings for protection during the transit from studio to The Delaplaine Visual Arts Education Centerin Frederick, MD. Installation takes place in two days, and the opening reception September 5th, 3-5 pm. A brief glimpse of some of the new artwork for the exhibit.
